In addition, the website is mostly Calvinistic in its theology (it adheres to 4 point Calvinism).[3][4][5]

As of February 11, 2020, the web traffic tracking company Alexa, ranks the website GotQuestions.org as being the 10,401th most popular website in the world.[6] The website GotQuestions.org is the 5th most popular Christian website in the world if one looks at the Alexa data.[7]

Questionable doctrines

Due to Got Questions' adherence to Calvinist doctrines, some of their articles contain interpretations of Scripture which are questionable in nature or incorrect:

  • Insistence of "once saved, always saved" – Got Questions insists upon the Calvinist doctrine that salvation cannot be lost,[8] even none of their cited "evidence" in their article proves that individuals who repent are incapable of losing salvation while still alive in the flesh
